At the beginning, the abandoned wife brought two children, and became the richest man by farming and

Song Yiren got up from the bed. "Hiss", the muscles all over her body ached, and she cried out in pain.

Aunt Li heard the sound, hurried into the room, and helped Song Yiren to sit up.

"Yi Ren, you are still pregnant, if you ask me, you can't be so tired!"

"Auntie, look at this house, the house is completely empty. You also said that I am pregnant, and I will give birth in about autumn. If the house is still like this, our three mothers will starve to death!"

"Then how can it be! The village folks, the village will not watch you starve to death!"

"Auntie, if you don't help the poor, how can you live on other people's money?"

Aunt Li sighed, feeling that Yi Ren was indeed different from the weak and easy-going bully she used to be.Maybe it's leaving someone you can rely on and taking your child with you!Aunt Li thought to herself.

"By the way, auntie, this is the money you paid for picking mushrooms and wild vegetables yesterday and helping me look after the children." Song Yiren took out twenty copper coins from his body.

"Yi Ren...is this... for me?"

"Yes, please help me see how a child is worth five copper coins, and the rest is for picking mushrooms and wild vegetables."

"Yi Ren... this... this is too much!"

This is twenty copper coins!We must know that at this time of year, the heavy labor at home is working on the dock, and it only costs 25 copper coins a day.Although the farming season will be busy for a while, labor prices will rise.

But as an old lady, she took the children to pick some mushrooms and wild vegetables. It was not tiring, and it was just a matter of chance. This day, she earned more than ten or twenty copper coins, which made Aunt Li really afraid to take it.

"Auntie, take it quickly, you deserve it!" Song Yi said humanely.

Seeing that Song Yiren didn't seem to be joking, Aunt Li gritted her teeth and said, "Yiren, then I will really accept it!"

"Of course! This is the labor income of your aunt, don't be embarrassed!"

After taking the copper plate from Song Yiren's hand, Aunt Li couldn't hide the excitement on her face.I thought to myself, if this girl gave so much money, she will have to help out more in the future, hey, she is still pregnant!My eldest daughter-in-law's month is about the same as this girl's, not to mention being raised in gold and jade, and she doesn't have any hard work, so she embroiders at home.

"Auntie, it's still the same today, don't make dinner, I made it and you take it back!"

"No, no, no, Yiren, you gave me so much money, how can I still eat your food!"

"Auntie! Don't be polite to me. I didn't make it for your family alone. It's too late to make this troublesome food tomorrow morning. I will make it tonight and sell it in the town tomorrow morning. Besides, we have to eat it ourselves. !" Song Yiren thought that Aunt Li must be embarrassed, and had already prepared this set of rhetoric.

Sure enough, after she finished speaking, Aunt Li agreed, but she still stretched out her hand swiftly to help Song Yiren with her work.

Song Yiren cut the pork belly with skin into small pieces, fat and thin, added water to the pot, put the meat under cold water, put a few raw eggs, and put a small piece of Huaixiang, which is the modern star anise.I poured some shochu I bought when I made pig's trotters last time.Bring to a boil over high heat, and skim off the froth with a gourd ladle that is not very easy to use.The soup was not poured out, but the broth and meat were served separately.

Aunt Li listened to Song Yiren's instructions and was cutting the mushrooms picked today on the chopping board.Song Yiren chose some that tasted as good as shiitake mushrooms, and asked Aunt Li to cut them into small pieces.And chop some wild shallots and scallions to replace the modern onions - there were no onions in this era.

After everything was ready, Song Yiren cleaned the pot again, put a lot of lard, put wild garlic and green onions in, and slowly stir-fried on a low heat, while constantly turning it with a shovel.

"Aunt Li, besides keeping the fire low at this time, you must stir and stir constantly, otherwise the wild garlic and shallots will easily burn. If there is a burnt smell, this dish will be considered a failure!"

"Hey, I know I know!" Aunt Li hurriedly responded.

Song Yiren thought firstly to repay Aunt Li's kindness, and secondly, she will definitely need help in the future. Aunt Li is honest and kind, has known the original owner for many years, knows everything about her, and takes care of herself in every possible way.Aunt Li should be taught both emotionally and rationally.

"Fried in the pot for a while, the wild garlic and scallions will turn golden yellow, and it's ready at this time, don't take too long, otherwise it will be easy to be bitter."

Aunt Li nodded, staring intently at the stove. "Everything Yiren makes is delicious, and I can learn by myself. I can help her later, and I can also make it for my daughter-in-law!" Aunt Li thought happily.

Song Yiren put the golden yellow wild garlic, green onion and lard out of the pot, leaving only some fat at the bottom of the pot, and heated the pot again. pot.

With a sound of "呲啦", water vapor fell into the oil pan.

"At this time, be careful not to splash the oil!" Because of the loud noise, Song Yiren could only speak loudly to Aunt Li.

Stir-fry until the surface of the pork belly turns golden brown, and the fat part of the meat is also consumed. After that, she pours in the diced mushrooms that Aunt Li has cut into it, and continues to stir-fry. Pour in the green onion and stir fry evenly again.

Finally, pour in the meat broth that was cooked before, peel the boiled eggs and put them in, add salt, pepper (pepper), green onion and other seasonings, and add a piece of stone honey.

Two quarters of an hour later, the courtyard was full of fragrance, and their courtyard was surrounded by a fence, so naturally the smell could not be contained.

Her home is at the entrance of the village, and everyone who comes and goes can see and smell her.In the past few days, Song Yiren often went to the town again, and the baskets of rice noodles were carried back, which had long attracted people's attention.Today, the fragrance has spread so far, and the Ma family who lives opposite Aunt Li's house naturally also smelled it.

"Hmph, it's really a dog's belly filled with two taels of sesame oil. If you have two copper coins, you have to scatter it. It's not a festival, and an abandoned woman brings a money-losing product and eats meat!" said Zheng, the eldest daughter-in-law of the Ma family. , standing in his yard, rolled his eyes in the direction of the village entrance, turned around and went to the west wing.

She didn't want to turn around but bumped into her dull-witted husband. "Hey, dead man, what are you doing standing behind me without making a sound?"

"I...I don't listen to you. I just came back from digging wild vegetables..." Mrs. Zheng followed Song Yiren two days ago and went to the town to find out that she was selling cakes. It turned out that selling cakes made so much money. She didn't know what kind of pies. She is too good at cooking, and eggs are wasted in pancakes. She feels distressed, so she prepares to make wild vegetable cornmeal pancakes to sell, which prevents her husband from digging some wild vegetables and returning.

The Ma family is not local either, but they have lived in Songjiazhuang for three generations.The earliest old man Ma came here after fleeing famine. His family used to be a hunter, and he had some skills in hunting animals. One family in the village married their daughter to old man Ma.

Although he has a lot of skills, he can't help the couple to have children. They are both sons. The eldest is thirty, and the youngest is only thirteen.The family is poor, and there are not many choices in marrying a daughter-in-law. The eldest married a well-known pungent girl from the neighboring village, and it was this Zheng family.

After another quarter of an hour, the stewed meat was ready. Song Yiren lifted the lid, filled a bowl with stewed meat and eggs, and handed it to Aunt Li.

"Auntie, go home and steam a pot of brown rice, mix it with it!"

"Hey! This smells delicious. It just so happens that the second child is coming back today, let him have a taste of your handicraft!"

"Brother Jin Bao is back today! Let's fill another bowl!" As she said that, she was about to get the bowl, but Aunt Li hurriedly stopped her.

"Yi Ren, hurry up, you have to sell these things for money!" After a long time of deliberation, I finally filled an extra egg for Aunt Li to take back.

"Auntie, stop pushing!" Song Yiren couldn't push and pull, so he could only say: "Brother Jinbao has strength, please ask auntie to call Brother Jinbao to help me when he comes back!"

Aunt Li finally came next, and promised to let her second son Jin Bao come to help with the work tomorrow.
